Polaroid Two Review – Digital Instant Camera with PoGo printer

May 26, 2009

In this modern era of high technology devices and digital cameras, manual approach may seem backward but no one can refuse the joy one experiences while viewing the old childhood Polaroid shots.

Polaroid gives you another chance to have the pleasure of instant photography by introducing the New Polaroid Two. A cross between the old school Polaroid camera and the ultra hip technology of PoGo printer, it’s the Polaroid PoGo Instant Digital Camera that gives prints within 40 seconds of the snap shot.

But who would want an instant shot if it’s ruined by red eye effects or bad shots. Don’t worry as the Polaroid Two takes care of it all. Now you can view the snap on a 3″ LCD screen before printing and can crop the image, remove the irritating red eye effect and can add funny borders to the photos you take so that your efforts don’t go waste. The camera may not be that sophisticated as the digital cameras coming around, but its simple organization has earned it a special place in the hearts of Polaroid photography fans. It has fair lighting arrangement that gives bright and sharp images supported by a fair resolution.

The camera offers a 5.0 mega pixel resolution and gives prints on a 2 X 3″ slice of a sticky back photo paper that is heat activated zinc paper that is easy to stick on shelves and doors so that you don’t have to open up photo albums every time you feel nostalgic! The printer page is smudge proof, water resistant, fade resistant and tear proof so that you don’t have to worry about your friend’s threats when they say, “If you don’t tear that one, I will”…so go on blackmail them!

Not only this, there is an electronic timer, movie mode with sound and 4X digital zoom to make instant photography more fun. There is an option to record the images in the memory card so that you can transfer to your computer and save them up for later if you don’t want the prints.

Its batteries are rechargeable and can give 15 prints when fully charged. Whether it’s a surprise birthday party or an uninvited hit by a water balloon, you can record and print any reaction without missing the fun of teasing your friends. And as it is said that true pleasure has no price so this package at the rate of just £229.95 is not a bad deal at all. You may compare the price with other Polaroids available at cheaper rates but I bet they don’t offer the same technical advantages plus the quality of prints is really commendable.

Easy to carry and attractive in looks, this black color mix match of conventional and modern day camera is a piece of art that brings back to life, the child hiding inside you!
